The first significant visitor to my lights tonight, the Rosy maple moth (Dryocampa rubicunda). This is a male, and though he's much smaller than the Luna moth, he's in the same family--Saturniidae. This little guy is pretty worn, so he's probably ...

Here is a picture of my cilantro blooming earlier this year with a small bee on it. There were several different kind of bees visiting the flowers. I hope someone can identify this one, I had to blow up this picture quite a bit.

A Riker mount I put together for a friend's daughter. She's doing a school project on the invasive spotted lanternfly.

This is the resident possum. Poor thing got caught out in daylight. Took it awhile to get where it was going.

Last one for the night..... These are two exciting finds from today. The moth is the summer form of one I posted earlier in the year. It's called Scythris sinensis, and it's an Asian invasive (that, fortunately, feeds solely on an invasive plant)....

A few of my last A. dubernardi larvae. Most of my other caterpillars have pupated already. These are some of the second hatch, almost fully grown now. These guys are so neat to observe. I just can't get enough of their feeding behaviors.
